Cheap Boulder living

That sounds great. I heard Superior is an awesome place to live, but I couldn't move out there until summertime and neither could my friends.

I also have a one bedroom apartment in central Boulder for rent. It is right by trails and near Pearl st.

$780 a month. Sweet pool in the complex with lots of smokin chicks/guys in the summer.

Availible DEC 9th.

Post your email address if you are interested.

Reese, as your client I demand you refer all your one-bedroom needing renters to me!!

Can I run with the WCAP guys and have Arturo as my coach if I live there?

No, that will cost you an extra $50 a month.

Is that Tom Reese who they are talking about as the realtor? Does he run anymore? I saw he was on the entry list for the steeple last year at USA's, but I don't think he raced.

Hey, me and 3 of my teammates are planning a move to Boulder in May, after we finish college for the year. WOuld you email me details of Arturos's place? We would definitely be interested.

Sorry Sam, I should mention your property as well. If any one is looking to move into a one-bedroom place in Boulder, Sam Wilbur's place is perfect. Like he said, it is right in the heart of Boulder and in a very nice complex. If you interested, you can email me at reeserun1@yahoo.com and I'll get you in touch with Sam.

Sam,

I noticed your name in some duathlon results lately. Does this mark the beginning of the inevitable descent into golf and bowling?

Reese has been hurt forever. He had a bunch of knee surgeries but is doing better. I think he's out in Ireland seeing Dr. Hartman right now and that should help. I think he's got some fast times in him if he can stay healthy. Some of these ex-Buffs have a lot of potential, but haven't been able to put it together. Clint Wells has made huge jumps in the past couple years with solid training and confidence, these other guys should be able to as well. Scott Larson is like a 2:11 guy who can't seem to get it together. Batliner should be able to run faster. Where is Shawn Found these days? Don't get me started on Goucher. That guy should have the AR by now. Props to Culpepper though...smokin'!!!

Old Guy,

Yes it is the beginning of my descent. No more track & field. I'm saving golf for my 40's and 50's though.

There is nothing wrong with bowling.

Some descent. Wilbur won the 2002 Boulder Peak Triathlon's Duathlon race by six freakin' minutes in 1:55 and change vs. some guys who do it FT.

Sure, but can he pick up the 7-10 split in the tenth frame when the league championship is on the line?

I'm just curious who GOPHER is. Any one know?

It is a descent.

Duathlon is a sport for people who can't cut it in running, and cannot swim well enough to do triathlon.

However there is about $20,000 in prize money availible throughout the year for the best guy in the US.

So, im DUing it.

He might be good for a 185 but I'd wait till Wilba hits 40 for a guarantee on that 7-10 split in crunch-time.

As for duathlons, I didn't realize you'd sort of given up on running straight-up, just thought you were trying something new. You've likely put 30K+ of hard miles on your legs or whatever over the years. Mixing the running up with something else is a logical move if you want to walk smoothly down a flight of stairs when you're 70.

Also A) you're not just dabbling in them, you're rolling duathlons within your first year and making some coin doing it, and B) you're not getting old and fat. If you remain seriously into DUs, check out Eric Schwartz's web site at

www.duathlon.com

(though I figure you have already).

One Keg,

I check Duathlon.com daily. It's message boards aren't nearly as lively as Let's run. Best source of info for Duathlons though.

Hey Wilbur,

How did the race at world du go? I didn't see you in results but heard you were running.

Worlds was a nightmare. I have had chondromalacia on my left knee since the Dannon Naperville race. I couldnt bike at all for three weeks before worlds. But since I had already bought a plane ticket, hotel, rental car i went, took a lot of Vioxx and gave it a shot. Basically my knee went at the end of the first run, I was helpless on the bike, and reduced to a limping shuffle on the second run.

But to quote Arnold, I'll be back.
